Practical coastal roots
George's early work around charter fishing taught him to listen first, read real conditions, and solve the problem in front of him. HomeStretch brings that practical mindset into Monmouth and Ocean County homes.
Meet George Bulger
A clinical eye for the home you want to stay in
George built HomeStretch for adults 60+ and their families who want practical guidance before a fall, injury, or slow loss of confidence changes the plan.

George's path
A personal story, then a practical clinical model
The home is the setting
HomeStretch begins with the house, the daily routine, the bathroom, the stairs, the lighting, the car, and the activities that make independence real.
Clinical training, plain language
George pairs his Doctor of Occupational Therapy background and OTR/L licensure with CAPS training and NASM senior fitness specialization, then explains the plan in normal terms.
Mission
Independence through prevention
To optimize independence and overall life engagement for the older adult population by providing actionable solutions for healthy aging.
George's mission for HomeStretch.
Occupational Therapy lens
The plan starts where daily life actually happens
Home Stretch Consulting is operated on Occupational Therapy principles: a person's abilities, the environment around them, and the meaningful daily activities they want to access safely.
- How your abilities fit the environment you use every day.
- How safer routines protect meaningful activities, not just exercise goals.
- How a sustainable action plan can reduce hazards before they take over the conversation.
